Kinda like the end of 'Suffragette City' from 1972 "reminds" you of 'Under My Wheels' from 1971....

They lifted a riff, so what? Call the Riff Police!!! The songs themselves are entirely different.

Hah, i just got Michael Bruce's live "Halo of Ice" and indeed he throws in a bit of "Suffragette City" at the end there.

When I joked in the thread of what songs AC should cover that he should do Dolly Dagger, you in all seriousness chimed in that Elected was very similar to DD.

File under: No Shit Sherlock

Most/All artists borrow but sometimes it feels more like stealin'. That riff was pinched - but the song itself is original, or at least nothing like DD.

Biggest ripoff totally stolen songs in rock (and I'm sure there's a ton) that come to mind - Dazed and Confused/I'm Confused - Zep/Jake Holmes and I'm Eighteen/Dreamin' - AC/Kiss

You don't have to - just the forum is sufficient and the "Search this forum?" function is useful.

Ah Steve's alright in my books - but the LZ v. AC battle was pretty good.
